The national Social Weather Survey of April 28– May 2, 2021 found 63% of adult Filipinos choosing the United States of America (USA) as their preferred source of Covid-19 vaccines.
The survey also found Sinovac Biotech and Pfizer-BioNTech topping the list of preferred brands at 39% and 32%, respectively.
At the time of the survey, over 7 million Covid-19 vaccines have been delivered to the Philippines. Most of these vaccines are China’s Sinovac (about 5 million), followed by United Kingdom’s Oxford-AstraZeneca (about 2.5 million) and Russia’s Gamaleya Sputnik (about 30,000).
The first batch of Pfizer-BioNTech (around 193,000) COVID-19 vaccines arrived a week after the survey on May 10, 2021.

More than 700 rank and file employees of the Bureau of Immigration (BI) received their second dose of the Sinovac COVID-19 vaccine over the weekend.
BI Commissioner Jaime Morente said that the 700 BI workers were inoculated last Saturday and Sunday at BI main bldg. in Intramuros, Manila.
“Now they have gotten their second dose, our frontliners are now more confident of rendering efficient service to the public with less anxiety of getting infected by the virus,” Morente said.
He added that despite completing their inoculations, the vaccinees were still reminded to follow minimum health protocols, such as wearing masks and face shields, while on duty.

Topping the list were China’s Sinovac Biotech (39 percent) and US brand Pfizer-BioNTech (32 percent), followed by United Kingdom’s Oxford-AstraZeneca (22 percent), and US brand Johnson & Johnson (10 percent).
